Luca sat in the car driven by Luke, and they arrived at Norman Residence.

After the maid opened the door for them, they each carried a bag and walked into the house.

When they passed through the garden, Luca noticed the withered leaves of the climbing roses in the front yard and slightly frowned.

"What's wrong with these flowers?" asked Luca. The roses should be lush and in full bloom at this time, but they looked like wild grass in the mountains now. They were withering, not even a whisper of life could be seen in them.

The maid glanced at the roses and explained helplessly, "The roses are sick. They're delicate and require careful care to bloom well. But Mrs. Norman hasn't been in a good mood lately. The flowers have been neglected, so they became like this."

The maid did not know much about flower care either. Thus, she could not take care of the garden's plants for Queenie.

Luca nodded, indicating that she understood.

The Norman family initially had a gardener, but after Queenie’s health improved, she had been personally taking care of the garden.

Now that she was in a bad mood, she did not have the heart to tend to the garden, and naturally, the flowers could not thrive.

As Luca looked at the wilted yellow leaves on the roses without any buds, she no longer felt joyful over the arrival of spring. Instead, it was replaced by desolation.

Luca understood that Queenie’s heart had been deeply hurt by Leia.

She did not say anything and continued walking forward.

Before they reached the house, they could hear the children’s laughter. Luca and Luke exchanged glances with each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Zander had brought all three children over.

As they entered the house, Tommy rushed over with a joyful expression on his face. He came in front of them before they could say anything. "Dad, Ms. Luca, you're here!"
